"We have many migrants who make a deeply valuable contribution to our country, including in our healthcare system and hospitality sector and we depend on them to make our country work."

George Floyd's death shook the world.
Protests in every country. A promise of change for all.
But 6 years later — what has actually changed?
Just last week in Dublin, Ireland Yves Sakila met his death under similar restraint from security guards.
George Floyd’s family says ‘Not enough has changed’. His aunt Angela Harrelson said it best:
"When we get to the point where we don't have to say the words Black Lives Matter — that's when we know we have arrived."
